Hi friends!!
So, I obviously abandoned my blog for quite some time, but I'm back! I spent the past year interning with Cru and [prayerfully] impacting the lives of many students for Christ. I absolutely loved being a U.S. campus missionary and spending every day doing ministry with these college students - so much so that I'm returning to work with Cru for a second intern year!
I'm in the support raising process for this upcoming year and have 14 days till my 100% deadline on Aug. 1! I still need almost 48% of my support, but I'm praying that the Lord would have it in His will to bring it all in before the 1st. ( : If you are interested in learning more about my ministry, leave a comment because I'd love to connect with you and share! You can also check out my ministry page if you feel led to give financially to this ministry!
I'm a little bummed that I abandoned my blog for a year, but I'm excited to keep you updated throughout this year about what the Lord is doing through this ministry!
Along with support raising this summer I've done a couple other things.. I'm taking a New Testament survey course and it's been really great! It's a sweet way to get into the Word and really dig into it since there is additional reading and lectures that cover what I'm reading in Scripture. I've learned a lot already and God is really growing my desire and passion for His Word and learning more about Him through it! Also this summer I got to visit my boyfriend, Andrew, in Fiji! He also works for Cru, but on a campus in Fiji. It was an incredible trip and it was so, so wonderful to get to reconnect with him in person! Only four more months then he'll be back in the states! ( : I'm so excited for that day!
Look forward to more frequent updates and I'll do my best to satisfy your longings to read more about my life.. haha ( ;
Here are a few pictures [you can click them to make them bigger] to let you in on my life from this summer and the past year of ministry. .

Andrew and I at a park in Suva, Fiji. LOVE all the colors! Fiji is full of them! |
Our friend, Kyle Post, took some great photos of us while I was there! |
It was so nice being able to walk next to Andrew again and hold his hand ( : |
Dancing is one of Andrew's and my favorite things to do together. So great ( : |
Beautiful Kirsten - Andrew's sister and one of my good friends who I had the opportunity to disciple this year. |
